i have come to the final conclusion of outside interference as the root of the problem, but it has not left me any closer to finding a solution.
1) i do not know the source of the interference, but it is certain to me that it is outside my apartment.
2) i do not know if some kind of damage to the phones made existing interference worse, if the interference damaged the phones or if the interference is more recent.
the electric heating upstairs was removed last spring. a new tenant moved in upstairs near the beginning of the summer. i think this is the reason it seems ok, then doesn't, then does. it depends on the interference floating around. i had suspected this previously, but every time i came to a different answer i put it aside; these have all been false positives, and the interference is really the only thing left.
one of the most compelling demonstrations of this occurs when i place a towel over my head, which dampens it. moving my head around drastically alters the sound. it really couldn't be more clear.
i've decided on a plan.
1) i will finish this project on a track-by-track basis. most of it is mixed, i just need to verify that it sounds correctly. it is a bit of a process to find the right way to position the headphones, but it can be done.
2) i will replace the cord in the phones. i am not certain this will work, but i have to try it.
3) if it does not, i will need to talk to my neighbours, and see if i can determine a cause.
4) i'll need to talk to the landlord, after that. he has done electrical work in the building. he's an electrician. he may have some ideas.
5) if i still cannot resolve the issue, i will have no option but to plan to move.
i think 3 & 4 are the most likely to yield results, but i need to approach this incrementally to avoid making errors in my living arrangements.
the inriclaimed project, and related projects, will need to be done in the next few days. i will be able to do the filing I need to catch up to where i was, after that, while i wait for the phones to come in. the new cord will likely arrive early in the new year, and i'll have to go from there.
